Do you think Neanderthals worshiped God or anything like this?

Why on earth did you revive this?

I think i read somewhere that there was evidence of ancient ritual burials among Neanderthal. Burying the deads indicates some level of spirituality/religious behaviour. I wouldn't be too surprised if they worshiped animals , or the sun, but i don't think the modern concept of gods could have existed at the time.

Interesting to know this, I will look it up, I always wondered if the Neanderthals were similar to modern humans, or were they totally different.
Anyway to go back to this topic (wasnt active during the whole Xmas holiday so could not post that much), I understand your ponit Hitchslap, I myself had very pious grand parents, and had to achieve most of the christian catholic sacraments to please them, well I used to believe in everything (about things we were taught in Catechism) while I was a kid, but soon while I became a teen, I started to have a more objective opinion about religions, nowadays few people go to Church, mostly elder people, and that is mostly I think because they are part of another time, we can no longer deny the fact that most of things written in the Bible/Coran are wrong and can easily be refuted by science and historical facts.
